The bus driver allegedly ordered Young, who had taken a seat in the front, to move to the back because the driver was expecting an elderly passenger to board in Sacramento. Young says she told the bus driver she was getting off in Sacramento so the matter was "irrelevant," according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

As Young was getting up to "comply," she "quietly" said to the bus driver she "didn't have to have an attitude about this," according to her attorney Michael Adams.
